Chapter 90: Foreign Envoys Enter Beijing 1

The streets are full of people, not necessarily enthusiastic like this, looking at the clothes and appearance of the foreigners, but it is a real thing.

pointed to the yellow hair on his head, saying that he looked like an old yellow dog at home.

Pointing to the big nose, he said that it was like a parrot at home, and he couldn't see his mouth.

He pointed to the bells and whistles of his clothes, saying that he looked like a girl, and then pointed to his dark skin, saying that he looked like a black crow.

Giggling and laughing, in the eyes of the foreign envoy, it was actually a sign of enthusiasm, and he laughed for some reason, only the accompanying interpreter frowned and grimaced.

As a great man put it: "Historically, people have formed a stable community with a common language, a common territory, a common economic life, and a common psychological quality expressed in a common culture." "This is national consciousness!

For people who are very different from themselves, they are full of magic, or contempt or mockery. Okay! All of a sudden, there was a lot of people, and the mighty crowd laughed like a tide and followed to the root of the imperial city, and then they stopped far away.

As a businessman, Zuo Chen is relatively indifferent to this concept, and more people like to buy goods, which is something he is happy to see, and he needs to be more enthusiastic about opening up a larger trading market in order to earn more silver. Of course, it's just a simple trade in commodities, not anything other than commodities.

With the influx of people into the imperial city, the first thing foreign envoys did when they entered Kyoto was to pay homage to the emperor who sat on top of the court.

It was only at this time that Zuo Chen had the leisure to ask the subordinate officials accompanying him, "Which country is this envoy?" ”

"Report to Lord Shilang, there are Xirong Great Food Country, Southwest Yidian, Dali, Kunming and other small countries, Beidi Donghu, Dongyi Wa Kingdom and Goryeo Kingdom......" Wai Lang scolded Zuo Chen for not knowing anything, but he didn't dare to fake a color, and introduced it carefully and complimentingly.

After listening to Yuan Wailang's introduction, Zuo Chen understood in his heart that this was just a neighboring country or a vassal country of Daantai, which was essentially different from the foreign countries he knew, and it was even more far from the geographical distinction. Thinking that the horse's foot strength is still the fastest, my heart is relieved.

Undoubtedly, the day when the foreign envoys came to worship was a day when many officials and people of Antai were arrogant, and the clues could be seen by looking at the laughing crowd on the street and the officials who puffed up their chests.

Hou Shangshu, who was full of spring breeze, waved to Zuo Chen from afar, "Liu Shilang, don't rub in the back, you will also be ranked in the pilgrimage class." ”

There were officials around who had never met before, and when they heard Hou Shangshu summoning Zuo Chen, they all looked back at Zuo Chen, who looked immature and a little shy, and couldn't get along with the ruthless and ruthless appearance of the legend center. So, some people began to suspect that Li Shangshu deliberately rumored this son's evil deeds, and used it to slander or ......, but seeing Li Shangshu rushing to the crown in anger above the court, Prince Heqing turned his face with a red face and a thick neck, it didn't look like a fake!

"In the court, it's getting more and more lively!" An official whispered to a colleague.

"Not really! Li Shangshu's bedroom was burned and Commander Li's injuries were said to have been committed by this son! The colleague whispered in response.

took a step closer, and the other one who followed up said in a low voice: "Princess Li Guifei, Princess Ruxuan, I heard that the queen mother gave this Liu Shilang ......, and it is very lively now." ”

"When it comes to the royal family, don't dare to say disrespectful and silence! Silence! The official who spoke first waved his hand as he spoke.

For things that don't concern you, it's okay to talk about it, as long as you don't judge it in front of the parties! Once it comes to royal private affairs, it is something that cannot be easily discussed, and if it is not well controlled, it may be a catastrophe.

After a few steps, Zuo Chen approached Hou Jianbin and said flatteringly: "There is Lao Hou Shangshu who cares about the lower officials, and the lower officials are grateful!" ”

"Ho! Even if you kid has a heart, there are more ministers in the court, and you are officials in the same yamen, how can you and I not support each other and confront them with the same enemy!? "Hou Jianbin will give Zuo Chen a lesson when he sees the stitches, the upstart who is blue-eyed by the emperor, it is completely necessary to leave his worth and take the initiative to make friends, this kind of unwritten officialdom rules, as an old oilman who has boiled to the position of Shangshu, is as clear as shallots mixed with tofu.

"Then the lower official will have to listen to Hou Shangshu's teachings more, so as not to be calculated by the younger generation, and the lower official will naturally remember the teachings and never forget the kindness of Hou Shangshu!" Zuo Chen raised his face and looked at Hou Jianbin, full of sincerity.

smiled implicitly, and secretly thought in my heart, after a conversation in the restaurant yesterday, who wants to treat you as a yellow-mouthed child, just wait to ask for your own hardship! It's a high-sounding thing, who knows that you have a few twists and turns in your heart, and I have to be careful!

Seeing that Hou Jianbin didn't answer, Zuo Chen didn't care, he understood the truth of people's hearts for a long time, and he could get Hou Jianbin 's absolute trust with a few sycophants, Zuo Chen didn't have expectations at all. With a smile on his face, he followed him and stepped into the court.

All the officials of Kyoto and above the three grades were present, and the foreign regions came to make everyone, and the court seemed to be lively, but it still could not be equated with other places, and everyone remained quiet very tacitly, waiting for the officials of the Ministry of Rites to meet the Holy One according to the procedure.

Regardless of whether the foreign etiquette is cumbersome or simple, they all pay homage to the Holy God in accordance with the highest etiquette of Antai, and bow three times and nine times to sing praises and praise virtues.

Singing praises is nothing more than flattery, and it is better to make people listen to it crookedly than to have a derogatory meaning of half a word, saying that Da Antai is as prosperous as the sun is in the sky, and that the emperor is far-sighted and insightful. At the same time and place, the tide of praise filled the entire court in an instant, and the emperor was also happy to satisfy the ministers.

It may not be possible to surround the beam for three days, at least let the Manchu civil and military reminisce for a while, that is for sure. Thousands of people wear sycophants without wearing them, some people like it, some people deliberately flatter, an hour of time, I am afraid that it is to integrate all the praise words in the world, Zuo Chen is a little suspicious, is it the foreign worship post really has its meaning or the translation hall adds oil and vinegar to it.

Zuo Chen, who was crowded in the court, stretched his neck to look for the figure of Prince Qing, although he could participate in the banquet as a waiter of the Ministry of Works, he still could not get enough attention from the foreign missions without the help of the prince, and secretly thought in his heart, a series of things happened, Prince Qing must not deliberately alienate him.

"Liu Shilang......" The secretary of the military department greeted before the banquet.

"Hou Shangshu, wait a minute. The next official will come when he goes. Zuo Chen politely greeted Hou Jianbin and rushed over.

Hou Jianbin who stopped in place, stroked the beard on his chin, and secretly said in his heart, this Liu Shilang is really a fragrant bait, and he actually let the military department Shangshu ignore the taboos, and specially greeted him in front of him, thinking that there is also Prince Qing behind him, and the general Liu Shangwu is his father, he can't help but worry about the prince's plan, this is obviously a little fox who is not familiar with it and has a background, it is estimated that it is very difficult for the prince to envelop this son!

"Xia Guan has seen Zhao Shangshu!"

"Hmmm! In the blink of an eye, you are already in an official position. The emperor is really blue-eyed to you, how can you embarrass the many old ministers who have been officials for many years? Zhao Pengfei smiled, looking at Zuo Chen's expression, full of appreciation.

Zhao Pengfei, who has been a horse all his life, was transferred out of the military camp in the peaceful and prosperous times, and came to the foot of the Son of Heaven to serve as the secretary of the military department, and is keen on the reason for the fast sword and enmity, and he appreciates Zuo Chen's style of daring to show his talents.

"The emperor's grace is vast, and he doesn't dare to say anything, there are many officials with such abilities as Xia Guan, but they are just a little lucky!" Zuo Chen looked up at Zhao Shangshu with a smile on his face full of sincerity and said.

This kid is really slippery and doesn't leave his hands, and when he sees people saying good things, he doesn't say ghosts when he meets gods! Zhao Pengfei sneered and said, "Do you know? In a few days, your uncle Yu Xianmin will go to Kyoto to resume his life. ”

A feeling of being carried away by happiness quickly spread throughout the body. Since arriving in Kyoto, he has not been accompanied by his close relatives, and Zuo Chen, who has long felt lonely, can't help but feel a little nervous, "Do you want to return when your life is over, or do you want to live for a while?" ”
